Serial Posted October 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) A friend asked about Wit's sword which Brandon said we'd have to wait to find out about but seemed like he liked the way the theory was headed. (Theory is the one from somewhere else on this site where the sword Wit carries in WoK seems like another black blade from warbreaker.) I asked one question from here and another I had of my own. The first question was in regards the black gem and if it held a Spren to which he said that the theory was on the right track and that there is something going on in relation to the creation of Fabrials and with the spren and gemstones. (In my recording) During my signing I also asked about the storms in WoK and whether they were in any way like he pool in Elantris. He said they were not exactly the same thing, I did not have this part recorded but believe I remember correctly, but that he saw where I was going with the theory and was in he right direction but that they were NOT THE SAME thing. Might want someone else to ask this at another Q&A or signing for confirmation.

Robot Aztec Posted October 14, 2013 Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 Okay So if it is like shardpools but not really then I think maybe it is like the mists I was reading mistborn and Vin says that the mists leave water everywhere when they are gone and also shardblades when they appear are all wet and when the herald appears he is wet so I am wondering maybe the mists make things wet when they leave and shardblades make things wet when they appear. The Mist sgo away really fast so maybe they dont just vanish they go back to spiritual realm or something I think maybe I am onto something here also when Vin breaths the mist it comes out of her pores and stormlight comes out of pores so that seems like the same thing there too 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cem Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Thanks. I've started transcribing the WoR reading. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Qc95BUbIFnxw4WIeu1HnmC6pu_WxjXgvfou_KY8pY40/edit?usp=sharing 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binnut Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Ooh! The first reading was very interesting to hear i must say! But i am somewhat worried about what Ym said about his thoughts of the Cosmere. it may not be accurate of the real cosmere, or really i hope not, because that sounds very much like how the world in Raymond Feist's works is revealed to work. And that worries me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone finds one, let me know. Also, Nalan, assuming the guy in black and silver is him, is one zealous bastard. I'm pissed. And Ym is definitely from the 5th Order. He is learned/giving, and he used growth or regrowth on the boy. Edited October 15, 2013 by cem 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claincy Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Thanks for uploading these. The WoR reading was particularly interesting. On a side note I find it entertaining that thanks to this thread your rep level is higher than your post count 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Nalan, assuming the guy in black and silver is him, is one zealous bastard. I'm pissed. And Ym is definitely from the 5th Order. He is learned/giving, and he used growth or regrowth on the boy. Have I missed something somewhere? Why would the guy in black and silver be Nalan? Whoever he is, he is certainly quite harsh! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow. This Dark Constable guy is in a deep need to talk with Kalladin about how wrong and evil is his Windrunners power. Two interludes that he gave a hard time to weak people that are discovering their surge powers, I would like see him do this with someone that know defend themselves. I serius deslike this dude. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cem Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Pretty sure that conversation would end with Kaladin's eyes burned out. So anyway: WoK Prologue He was in conversation with two men, a dark-skinned Azish man who had an odd patch of pale skin on his cheek and a thinner, Alethi-looking man who kept glancing over his shoulder. WoR Prologue The two passed from the intersections of hallways ahead of Jasnah. They were ambassadors from the west, [including] the Azish man with the white birthmark on his cheek. Or was it a scar? The shorter of the two men, he could’ve been an Alethi, cut off when he noticed Jasnah. He let out a squeak, then hurried on his way. The Azish man, the one dressed in black and silver, stopped and looked her up and down. He frowned.“Is the feast over already?” Jasnah asked down the hallway. Her brother had invited these two to the celebration along with every other ranking foreign dignitary in Kholinar.“Yes,” the man said.His stare made her uncomfortable. She walked forward anyway. She would not be intimidated in her own palace. I should’ve checked out further on these two, she thought. She’d investigated their backgrounds, of course, and found nothing of note. Had they been talking about a Shardblade? Ym Interlude More rustling. The shadow separated itself from the darkness, resolving into a man with dark Makabaki skin, all save a pale crescent on his cheek. He wore black and silver. A uniform but not one from any military that Ym recognized. Thick gloves, colored at the back. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And have a little more Faith in Kaladin friend. He allready gived a hard time to two sharplates even without using a sharblade, and this in my book says a lot =) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADIMORTIS Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 The man in black must be the 'King's Stupidity'... Hoid , dressed in all black in silver is the king's wit ... The Azish man seems to be the bad guy , making him the counterpart of Hoid. Hence the name... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natans Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 (edited) Mr. Argent, there is also this part in the Ym interlude. Something rustled behind Ym. He jumped, spinning. The workroom was a place of dark corners and cubbies. Had he perhaps heard a rat? Why was the door to the backroom where Ym slept open? He usually left that closed. A shadow moved from the blackness back there. “If you’ve come for spheres,” Ym said, trembling, “I have only the five chips here.” More rustling. The shadow separated itself from the darkness, resolving into a man with dark Makabaki skin, all save a pale crescent on his cheek. He wore black and silver. A uniform but not one from any military that Ym recognized. Thick gloves, colored at the back. So he use shadow "surge". The question is, his power are radiant origin or we are looking to the very fisrt voidbringer surge here ?

Argent Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 I think you might be reading too much into it. The whole "shadow separating itself from the darkness" is a pretty common literary technique to describe somebody or something hiding in the shadows / darkness, and then stepping out of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Aztec Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 No I think that it makes sense because if he is against the knights radiant then he must be a voidbring and if hes one of those then he should have the opposite power and that means -lightweaving = darkweaving and shadow powers make sense for evil guys. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argent Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 I suppose he could be one of the Ten Fools. But he feels so much like a... like a tired and indifferent Herald to me. Actually, no. Scratch that. There is a line in Lift's interlude that almost straight-up says he is not with Odium. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time he appear there is odd shadows reference coincidence? For now it's just a guess but I woudn't be suprised if he "awesomeness" as related with shadows in some way =) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, no. Scratch that. There is a line in Lift's interlude that almost straight-up says he is not with Odium. Yeah, I agree. Heralds are messed up, guys. Shalash who is supposed to be honest and creative goes around destroying art. Nalan, just and confident, is like a bitter, burned-out cop who's seen too many bad stuff.

Serial Posted October 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Just wanted to add the two questions which one of my friends told me he asked while getting his books signed. Q: When might we expect to see Shadows of Self, the next Mistborn book? A: Probably about a year or so after Words of Radiance. Q: In The Way of Kings Hoid has a sword in his possession, is this sword related to the planet in Warbreaker? A:You may be onto something... So basically RAFO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
